I thought I might as well post this and see what you guys have to say. I'm looking into buying a new PC computer but to tell you the truth, i haven't had to do this for awhile and don't know much about computers (even though i use them quite frequently). Do you guys have any suggestions of good and moderately affordable computers? I'm getting it to make sure I can play Darkfall when it releases because my current computer is close to dying i think. Do you guys have any suggestions? I don't care whether it's desktop or laptop, just whichever gets more bang for its buck.

I can get you a duo core approx 5.0 ghz (total together) with 2 gigs of ram and damn good video card for around 400-500 bucks after rebate if you have a tower monitor and mouse already.

My buddy got that same computer for WAR and I can almost, almost guarantee he can hook me up with the parts for the same price he got it for.

I am in the USA also.

I don't know how to put together a computer and I don't think I would trust myself trying to do it haha. So most definitely a pre-built one. Again the cheaper the better, but I still want it to be able to run DF smoothly

putting together a PC is not as hard as you would think.. I am sure baal could walk you through it if you gave him 50 bucks.
